Guys,
In an attempt to fix a dragging clutch in my 94 KDX200, I filed the basket and replaced the friction plates & steels. I adjusted the cable all the way in by the lever, as well as all the way in on the adjuster by the odometer. Then, I set the lever free-play at 15mm per the manual. The clutch was slipping a little at first, but the instructions said it would likely do that until it seated itself. I trail-rode about 12 miles yesterday, and then loaded up the bike and came home. Upon unloading, I noticed that the bike (cold by now) would barely climb my driveway. I pulled it into my shop and drained the tranny oil (Mobil1 10-30). WOW! it was solid silver... it looks like liquid metal. I re-filled it, and attempted a test-ride. Bike will barely move, while RPM soars. What now?????
